DOW AGROSCIENCES TO DISPLAY VINTAGE JOHN DEERE TRACTOR.
Dow AgroSciences, Indianapolis, unveiled a vintage John Deere
tractor April 30 during a ceremony at its headquarters. Purchased in
1953, the tractor was the third capital expense item for The Dow
Chemical Company's agriculture business, which later became Dow
AgroSciences.
"A tractor may be a relatively common sight, but a vintage
John Deere 40 parked in the lobby of a corporate headquarters is
not," says Dow AgroSciences CEO A. Charles Fischer. "For us,
this tractor symbolizes Dow AgroSciences' long-term commitment to
agricultural research."
